Portland, Oregon, might have set a new world record this past Saturday, when an estimated 14,000 people grabbed their bikes and stripped off their clothes for the annual Naked Bike Ride.

Thousands more lined the streets, cheering. People who watched say it took about 30-40 minutes for all the riders to pass by. At each intersection along the route, police blocked traffic. Some waved, some smirked. Some folks along the route stripped naked in solidarity. Many flashed cameras, and texted friends that they'd just seen more bare butts and boobs than they'd ever seen in their lives.

It was truly a memorable event, a new world record, and for yours truly, a new life experience.
